July Numbers

First things first, HUGE shout out to David and Suzie Olsen on completing Ironman Boulder!  David finished 22nd out of 338 in his AG and Suzie finished 8th out of 133 in her AG!  Now, if you guys could ever figure out how to do Ironman Arizona, we could go mano-a-mano on our finishing times.

Just as I feared, but swore wouldn't happen, as soon as I get my MTB all set to ride, my running plummets.  As you recall, my running was coming along nicely.  Keeping my trusty metronome handy, I was clipping along at 180 cadence for 8 and 9 mile "fun" runs.  Gone were the days of heading out for a quick 3, 4, or 5 miler.  I was becoming efficient enough to actually enjoy the longer stuff.  Alas, I fix the tire problem, and brakes, on my my MTB, and it's all about the trails again.  Not to mention that my tri bike is back on the rack too. In fact, I've only ridden it in May, June, and July only this year and logged a mere 613.26 miles.  If I don't get back on my tri rig for the rest of the year, it would be my lowest annual output (since I started keeping data in December 2009) by about 406 miles.

Swimming?  What's that?!?!  STILL no yards in the pool or in the lake.  I haven't been in either since January.  We even renewed our YMCA membership with the anticipation of getting back.  So, far, it's not happening.
